Shahrekord Archaeological Museum as one of cultural-historical attractions is located in

Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province. In this museum, you can get more acquainted with the
history of Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province. The temperate climate of this province has
caused many people to live in this area since a long time ago. Most people living in this province
were originally Persian and spoke Farsi, but today there are the different ethnic groups in this
province. The Shahrekord Archaeological Museum can represent the different ethnic groups who
were familiar with this area and how they migrated to it. The ancient hills showed that the history
of human settlement in Shahrekord can be traced back to millennia BC. The ancient name of
Shahrekord (i.e., Deh Kord) has been heard since Zandiyeh era.
Archaeology Museum in Shahrekord (Parhizkar Bath) remained from Pahlavi Era (1326 AH).
Parhizkar Bath was built on plot of land belonging to Haj Hossein Parhizkar and also it was
dedicated to the public in 1334 AH. It was composed of two baths, including a big bathhouse
(hammam) located in the south side and a small bathhouse located in the north side.
The big bathhouse is composed of the complete parts of the traditional and ancient bathhouse,
including the entrance, Rahroo (corridor), the Sarbineh (dressing hall), Garmkhaneh (hot bathing
hall), Shah- Neshin (alcove), Khazineh (final bathing room) and Mian-dar (middle Door), but the
small bathroom has the Khazineh, Garmkhaneh, Rahroo and Sarbineh. The interior of Parhizkar
Bath is decorated with turquoise and white tilework and a polygonal stone Howz (fountain)
located in the middle and several deep Howzes around it, and round stone columns with spoon-
shaped grooves, stone platforms that were used as the Sarbineh, and the upper arch of these
platforms. After the decisions taken to change the bath into a museum, changes were made in
terms of infrastructure in this building in 2003, and the area of the infrastructure increased from
620 m to 1,400 m, and finally the Shahrekord Archaeological Museum was inaugurated in 2003.
The Shahrekord Archaeological Museum exhibits the most ancient objects dating back to
Neolithic period and being more than 9,000 years old. Most of objects are stone and bone made
tools. Pottery containers with geometric designs, glasses, bowls, Achaemenid cuneiform
inscriptions and other tools made using a special technique show the ancient civilization of this
region of Iran. To preserve the historical artifacts, they were divided into prehistoric, historic,
and Islamic artifacts and exhibited in the Sarbineh, Mian-dar, Garmkhaneh, Khazineh and the
Shah- Neshin located in the big bathhouse.
